Yangtze River Daily Wuhan Client October 1 (Reporter Jin Wen) Double Ninth Festival is approaching, and the "Witness Golden Wedding Love in the Double Ninth Festival" charity event launched by the Yangtze River Daily Wuhan Client warms the whole city. Starting from September 28, photographers from the city photography team have successively entered various communities in Wuhan to freeze the happy moments for the golden wedding couple. Today, the golden couple lives in Jiangling Community, Shouyi Road Street, Wuchang District. The photographer came to their home to take pictures of sweet details of their daily relationships and listened to them telling the love story of their half-century together.
"Which one looks good to wear?" "You look good to wear the red cardigan !" I kept silent before the shooting, and my wife asked softly, and Qian Yu's reply blurted out. Qian Yu is a retired university teacher. He has been married to his wife Liu Xiaoxia for 55 years, but the interaction between them is still full of love. During the shooting, Qian Yu tidied up his wife's clothes from time to time. His wife turned her head and looked at him and smiled. At the beginning, the two of them seemed a little restrained. Under the guidance of the photographer, the movements and expressions of the two old men gradually relaxed, and their condition was getting better and better in the face of the camera. "Click," and smiles were frozen one by one.

Asked about the story of the two. The old man told reporters that they were childhood sweetheart neighbors, and then became husband and wife. After more than 50 years of getting along, the two had an unusual tacit understanding in life. "Whoever is busy with work, the other one should take care of their family" has become their tacit agreement for more than 50 years. The old man said, "She works very hard and always supports me with all his strength. She has done her best in the family." When asked who does more housework now, his wife quickly answered: "Now Teacher Qian does more."

Five years ago, the summer was the 50th anniversary of their golden wedding. At that time, Liu Xiaoxia was admitted to the hospital due to illness. In order to welcome her wife to discharge from the hospital, the old man carefully prepared a large bouquet of flowers and a poem: "Fifty years in the blink of an eye, Yan'er's newlyweds come into view/On the road of golden marriage, knowing the heart, knowing the liver, knowing bad habits, knowing each other and sharing/A hundred flavors of life, sour, bitter, spicy and sweet, sharing of taste/In plainness, embellished with spring flowers and autumn moons/In the clear and vulgar, there are also many romantic and elegant/Wishes, I wish to recover soon, regain the style of the past, and be charming when I was young." At the shooting site, when reading the poem written by her husband, Liu Xiaoxia's eyes were still a little red.

The old couple feels very happy about their current life. "Now, our four generations live together," Liu Xiaoxia told the Yangtze River Daily reporter with a smile. This month, the eldest granddaughter just gave birth to a baby.

"Thank you, this photo shooting activity is very meaningful!" Ms. Qian, who signed up for her parents to participate in the event, sent a text message that afternoon. Ms. Qian said that signing up for this event is to leave a precious commemoration for her parents; on the other hand, she also wants to educate her children to inherit the virtues of the Chinese nation - "respect her parents, be grateful and give back."
